Men Have Low Awareness of Erectile Dysfunction and Its Effects, Study Shows

A new survey conducted on 1,000 men aged over 40 reveals that just over ten per cent of men in their early 40s are aware that erectile dysfunction strikes regularly in the fourth decade even though evidences suggests that 40% of men aged 40 or over have some form of the condition.

The study, commissioned by Eli Lilly and Company Limited (Lilly UK) as part of a new erectile awareness campaign, also showed that most men are not aware that erections problems could be a warning sign of even serious conditions such as heart diseases and cancer.

This just justified that most men don't worry too much about their health, especially their sexual health, unless they can already see symptoms of long-term medical conditions.

Further, the survey shows that less than one fifth of men have visited their GP in the last 12 months, and that men in their 40s are likely to put off visits to their GP until they consider their symptoms to be long-term or worsening. But these men can be optimistic about finding a solution; 95% of ED cases can now be treated by the health care professional once reported.

The survey was commissioned as part of the new ED disease awareness campaign 40over40, from Lilly UK, which has been designed to educate men on the causes of ED and who it affects, and encourage them to seek help.

Generic Viagra has helped millions of men with erectile dysfunction achieve improved erections. This pill is shown to help men get and keep an erection for successful intercourse.

Men do need to be more proactive with their health and this study proves it. It is important to remember that catching some of the potential risks/problems is easier to resolve when caught early. When you have seen the doctor and he has given you the all clear but you are still concerned this is when finding alternatives like a male enhancement device can really help you it not only helps you with your concerns it also helps the problem

Hi,
I came across with your blog and found it interesting. this will surely help people and spread awareness of ED. There are some pills available such as generic viagra, kamagra, etc. to help ED and to cure impotence in men.

Despite the best efforts of your commentors to recommend 'generic cialis' and other dodgy prescription medications, I would strongly warn your readers against buying medications online. You cannot know what is in them or where they are sourced from. If you want a prescription medication, go to your doctor and get from a proper pharmacist.

Alternatively, try natural herbal extracts that are safe and effective. You can find several products here: Herbal Remedies
